Yes, if the user connects to a data flow or a Power BI dataset that is using premium per user licencing each user using either the data flow or a Power BI report would need to also have a premium per user licence.

    Hello GilbertQ,

    If the dataflow with incremental refresh would reside in a Premium Capacity (not PPU), built by a user with Pro license, the consumer user only needs to be a Free license user, right?

     

    Thank you
